I understand what they were trying to do with the radio announcer. But I think the use of a homer announcer needs to be a secondary option, and he also needs to sound more like a homer. You should have the option of listening to the national broadcast crew or your local radio guy.

As for the regular announcers, I have no problem with bringing in a couple no-names to do it. In fact, I think having no-name announcers is better than Al and John. Big names don't have the time and are expensive to hire for this stuff, while some no-names can put in a ton of material.

Whatever they do, it needs to improve a lot. I feel like I'm playing Sega Genesis when listening to the sound of the game. I'm all for bringing in a real announce crew as the main option while leaving the radio guy as an alternative.
